17 Tweets About 'Tidying Up With Marie Kondo' From Hilarious Parents

Since “Tidying Up with Marie Kondo” hit Netflix earlier this month, many people ― including a handful of funny parents ― have sounded off on what “tidying up” looks like for them.

On the show, organization expert Kondo helps families clean up their homes, get rid of clutter and arrange the belongings they choose to keep in a more effective way. Her methods, which are also featured in her best-selling book The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing, include having people ask themselves if an item “sparks joy” and saying “thank you” to items they give away.

Of course, the hilarious parents of Twitter have a few things to say about the series, too. From learning how difficult it is to clean up a home with a toddler around to trying to convince their partner that their stuff really does spark joy, here are their funny thoughts:

I tried the Marie Kondo method for decluttering my home and got rid of anything that didn’t spark joy. I feel really good about it but my husband and kids are ruining the moment by trying to get back inside the house.

Does the whole Marie Kondo philosophy of “if when you hold it and it doesn’t bring you joy, throw it out” apply to your kids who are screaming at you because you told them to get off the PlayStation? #AskingForAFriend
